## About

```text
At M&G India, I engineered and modularised Azure cloud architectures that cut environment provisioning from 4–5 hours to 15 minutes using PowerShell, Bash, and DevOps capabilities.

I support Azure infrastructure hosting more than 100 microservices on Azure Red Hat OpenShift and Kubernetes. I also developed multi-stage Azure DevOps pipelines that enabled a move from bi-weekly releases to daily production deployments.

I built PowerShell automation and PowerBI dashboards for tracking SQL Database and managed disk capacity, eliminating 60% of manual overhead. At M&G India, I also implemented RBAC and Azure Policies to support least-privilege governance.

Previously, as an Associate Consultant at Capgemini Technology Services India Ltd., I automated infrastructure routines with PowerShell and BASH, eliminating manual workloads by 80% and reclaiming 30+ hours monthly. I also used Azure Log Analytics and Azure Monitor to diagnose performance issues and authored runbooks that accelerated engineering onboarding by 50%.
